NetAcquire® Corporation Announces a New Collection of Universal I/O Interface Options
NetAcquire® Corporation announced today a new collection of universal I/O interface options for serial signal connections. These new I/O interfaces offer configurable signal levels and connectors, and enhance NetAcquire’s “connect anything to anything” interface approach. The flexibility to reduce the rack space needed to a bare minimum is now available. Chassis back panels can now be configured to match exact signaling needs, even in 2U form factors.
The TTL-compatible, BNC I/O interface version includes highly optimized signal conditioning with tuned transmission line impedances. Input hysteresis retains signal integrity at edge frequencies in excess of 10 GHz.
Faster system integration is achievable using newly available software-programmable line termination. Each channel can be individually set to quickly match a site’s existing cabling impedance, eliminating the signal integrity problems associated with fixed single value termination typical with some equipment.
NetAcquire® Corporation Announces Super-Computer Telemetry Processing
The future of high-performance network telemetry processing is here
NetAcquire Corporation announced today that it has extended their lineup of market leading real-time telemetry data processing systems to include a virtualized Super-Computer telemetry data processing system capable of processing in excess of 1 billion decommutated parameters per second in an extremely low-latency deterministic real-time software environment. All the decommutators run in protected, cyber-security hardened virtual operating environments with end-user security, access control and auditing. Telemetry Over IP (TMoIP) applications are now able to handle massive numbers of mission parameters in real-time including full floating point polynomial engineering unit conversion.

NetAcquire announces our newest, high-performance Quick Connect Panel (QCP) for serial interfaces!
The new QCP-D2TTL panel offers:
- Rock-solid, error-free TTL communication at bit rates and over cable lengths that were previously unachievable.
- Supports over 40 Mbps on all channels simultaneously due to advanced signal integrity modeling and design of sophisticated transmitter/receiver circuitry with Tx pulse shaping and Rx tuned hysteresis.
- Fully ESD protected I/O, short-circuit protected Tx buffer outputs, and lead-free design.
- Space-saving 2U (a 50% reduction in vertical rack space) supports 8 bi-directional serial channels plus IRIG time in and out, plus an even higher density 3U panel version that supports 16 channels.
- Per-channel data and clock receive line termination is now software programmable to quickly match site’s existing cabling.
- At-a-glance Rx and Tx channel and IRIG in/out status indicators on panel.
- Hinged design hides rack-internal cabling, while still providing easy access.
NetAcquire announces a new release of MissionView!
The latest version of MissionView has many new features, including:
- integrated data recording
- scrolling data table displays
- favorites capability
- integrated web pages and help
- configurable visual dynamics such as color when out-of-range
- enhanced operation with password-protected servers

John Bono
Engineering Vice President
John Bono, a Seattle area native, graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the University of Washington. John started his career with Boeing Aerospace Company, working in a variety of roles. He received personal recognition from Boeing’s CEO for his contributions to 767 avionics. John designed hardware and firmware for a Mil-Std-1553 bus interface and was the hardware lead and system designer for a B-1B flight simulator’s computer generated imagery display. After Boeing, John joined Advanced Technology Laboratories (ATL) as a signal processing engineer. He was promoted to the role of ultrasound system architect before becoming the software and systems lead for an image storage and network transport system. During John’s tenure at ATL, he received a Technical Fellow award, became a member of the Senior Technical Staff, and had a role in ATL’s achievement of ISO 9001 certification.
When John joined the rapidly growing NetAcquire Corporation in 2001, his “big company” experience was leveraged to enhance configuration management and quality systems and processes. He soon became the Management Representative for the company’s AS 9100 certification efforts.
Today, John is involved in the system, hardware, and firmware design of virtually every system NetAcquire ships. While the majority of these systems are customer-specified configurations of NetAcquire COTS hardware and software modules, many other systems are rack-sized, challenging configurations involving complex interchanges of information in all forms. The NetAcquire motto of “connect anything to anything” is John’s daily mission; he knows that, when applied to real-time systems, there will be a continuous stream of interesting problems to solve and challenges to conquer to best meet the needs of his customers and their mission critical projects around the world.
